They asked if we would use some footage of the Elfstedentocht (Eleven Cities Tour), the world's biggest ice skating race, and write some songs around it. So we did.

NUDES

Until We Get There (Acoustic)

Mary D. Kay

The Pack

Pressure valve
In control of my doubt
Angels are dressing down
in the sky
Human touch
in the absence of love
And my blood, it is sound
I get by

Such a thought
to forget what I'm taught
No more pills to be popped
I'm alright
But I'm not blind
to what I cannot find
Though I try and I try
and I try

I won't grow old in golden light
And Babylon ain't worth the fight
I'll be happy to be fine.
